   More insight. When I stop the postmaster I see this:

[root@salmo ~]# /etc/rc.d/rc.postgresql stop
Shutting down PostgreSQL...
pg_ctl: invalid data in PID file "/var/lib/pgsql/data/postmaster.pid"

   It appears that I have several things to correct. This time, I promise to
hold on to the messages so I can fix things up by myself the next time they
occur.
